As I continue to investigate how to flourish as I age, I find that the "Hemisphere Hypothesis," does a good job of defining mental changes I need and want to make. In broad terms, it will be easier to flourish  when I learn to quiet my thinking mind and instead operate more consistently out of my experiential mind. And, I find the practice of meditation to be particularly helpful in training my mind to achieve this beneficial rebalancing act  

Daily meditation practice gives me the opportunity to train my mind to create better hemispheric balance and flow, to, as Alan Watts puts it, "Lose my mind, to come back to my senses." Since my brain continues to be "plastic" and malleable, the daily practice of evoking certain states of mind while inhibiting others will - I hope - rewire my brain to flourish more naturally.
